ACAS seems to have provoked movement on the management side of BBC Local Radio. Rhodri Talfan Davies and Jason Horton have outlined a plan which, according the NUJ, removes the risk of redundancy from 300 journalists; offers new guarantees on redeploying those who will lose their roles; plus another nudge to reduce the scale of 'regional output', with three additional weekend breakfast shows that will only be shared by two stations. The BBC has also agreed to conduct stress risk assessments in each region ahead of roll-out.
So the 24 hour strike on Friday is 'paused' - your local radio station should be the place to go for detailed analysis of the English local elections results - at least while NUJ members consider the offer.
